H-Dimeric Nanospheres of Amphipathic Squaraine Dye with an 81.2% Photothermal Conversion Efficiency for Photothermal Therapy

Yigang Wang et al.

Summary: Understanding and implementing ordered supramolecular assembly in organic photothermal materials is challenging but significant. In this study, an amphipathic squaraine dye (PSQ) with a poly (ethylene glycol) chain attached was synthesized and self-assembled into nanospheres with well-defined H-dimeric substructures. Molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to illustrate the self-assembly process. The resulting H-dimeric nanospheres showed ultrahigh photothermal conversion efficiency and exhibited good stability, biocompatibility, tumor accumulation, and efficient tumor inhibition in photothermal therapy. These findings provide a unique platform for the precise design of small-molecule photothermal agents for future clinical applications of photothermal therapy.

H2O2-Responsive NIR-II AIE Nanobomb for Carbon Monoxide Boosting Low-Temperature Photothermal Therapy

Gongcheng Ma et al.

Summary: Low-temperature photothermal therapy (PTT) is a promising therapeutic strategy, but the expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) can hinder its efficacy. Researchers have developed a smart nanobomb that can explode in the tumor microenvironment and release carbon monoxide (CO) to inhibit the expression of HSPs, thereby improving the effectiveness of low-temperature PTT.

Photoacoustic Imaging and Photothermal Therapy of Semiconducting Polymer Nanoparticles: Signal Amplification and Second Near-Infrared Construction

Xu Zhen et al.

Summary: The development of semiconducting polymer nanoparticles (SPNs) for photoacoustic imaging and photothermal therapy has shown promising results due to their clear structure-property relation and molecular structural tunability. Various strategies such as structure-property screening, fluorescence quenching, accelerated heat dissipation, and size-dependent heat dissipation have been discussed to amplify the PA brightness of SPNs for in vivo PA. Additionally, molecular approaches have been introduced to shift the absorption of SPNs for NIR-II PA imaging and PTT in order to improve tissue penetration depth for diagnosis and therapy.

Constructing a new polymer acceptor enabled non-halogenated solvent-processed all-polymer solar cell with an efficiency of 13.8%

Chunguang Zhu et al.

Summary: A new polymer acceptor, PS1, was developed by linking a non-fullerene acceptor building block with dithienothiophen[3,2-b]pyrrolo-benzotriazole capped with 3-(dicyanomethylidene)-indan-1-one via a thiophene spacer, enabling it to be easily dissolved in non-chlorinated solvents. When using 2-methyltetrahydrofuran as the processing solvent, the all-PSC composed of PS1 and a polymer donor PTzBI-oF achieved a remarkably high power conversion efficiency of 13.8% in the light-harvesting layer.
